There has been a recent trend in the online gaming industry involving mobile devices. Just like Facebook and Twitter, online gaming sites have begun to consider mobile devices at their disposal, and develop a ‘compact’ version of their software. And as Lucky Nikki Review and other game reviews are available online, all one has to do is read them and just enjoy the game. There are several word games too, that have Wordscapes answers provided to them. These games are fun as well as educative. Partypoker is among the online gaming sites that have just adopted this practice. Last December 2012, the people behind partypoker have released their mobile offering for Android, alongside with the announcement of the revamp of their monthly tournament guarantee to a staggering $15 million. The app is only compatible with smartphones and tablets that run in Android 2.1 or higher.

Poker enthusiasts can use this virtual lounge to connect with other members, and share information about their experience and how they can improve it. The app is available in multiple languages, including English, German, and French. The partypoker app is not available in Google Play, but it can be downloaded from their main site.

As the partypoker app is still in its beta version, withdrawals as well as deposits are not available as of yet. Android users are also expected to encounter situations involving connection problems and bugs during their app experience. The partypoker team suggests that, if these problems continue, it is best to report it to them directly, as soon as possible.
